Very few cars and truck -

ad valorem tax program.
Sonn- counties, cities and
school districts tax them, but
close to 80 per cent of the ve-
hicles go untaxed. So the Tex
as Commission on State and
Local Tax Policy proposes that
something be done about it.
An Amendment to the con-
stitution is their recommenda-
tion. They suggest an amend-
m« nt - x. mpting motor vehicles
from the property tax, but al

them.

SOCIALIZED INDUSTRY
A study committee on the

convict labor to produce more

State spends about $'.,000,-
000 a year for merchandise

tires, mattresses and furniture
for the prisons.
In the past, organized labor
and business groups have been
able to keep the state from

tition with paid labor. But

CARI.A'S FORCE
Texas Water Commit ion en-
gineers have calculated the ki-
netic energy released by Hur-
ricane Carla. They figure the
energy exerted over a 24 hour
period is equai to 8,700 20-
megaton nuclear devices.
In other words, it amounted
to a 20-megaton atomic bomb
exploded every 10 seconds for
24 hour.-.
State engineers agreed that
j man can do nothing about the
wind involved in such great
! force. But they felt that man
i can protect the land from tidal
waters.
Galveston County engineers

MORE TAXES?
Legislators anil citizen* who
thought the state' money prob-
lem was solved by the sales
tax, which took effect a year
ago September 1, may have a-
nother think corning.
Budget requests of state a-
gencies predict another huge
increase in public school and
college costs in the two-year
i period starting September 1,
1 03. Laws already on the
books will divert about $55,000,-
000 a year more from the State
Treasury to the public schools, citi/.
